Lion's Ear
Leonotus leonurus, also called Lion's Tail - this herb is just coming into flower in the medicinal display bed, next to the herb and scent garden. The flowers are orange, tubular and are pollinated by hummingbirds.

My lion's ear lasted one year, but it was spectacular, over 5' tall. Just a single stalk. A friend had one that had many stalks. Maybe mine was an annual & hers a perennial.
